Shadowhunting

So much of what we do is rooted in shadow work, which is the concept of looking for and exposing the hidden motivations behind our actions. 

Shadows can be negative (like a habit of self-sabotage as we near the completion of a goal) or they can be positive (like being unable to recognize a good quality in ourselves but admiring it in others). Good, bad, or ugly, we want to shine a light on what’s going on inside of us so we can better navigate reality.

Negative shadows, if left unchecked, can lead to incomplete programs, trips to the wilderness, and worst case scenario, being asked to leave the cycle. We want to see each of you succeed, not just to check something off your list, but to walk away empowered with new knowledge of who you are and what makes you tick.

Here are a few questions you can ask yourself to help uncover what lies beneath the surface:

• How do I react to stress?
• What’s my favorite way to decompress after a long day?
• When things don’t go my way, how does it make me feel and what do I do about it?

The answers to these questions can expose bad habits, addictions, or limiting self-beliefs that keep us stuck. The good news is that, once we know what we’re doing wrong, we can start to do something about it. Share your insights with your dyad and/or phalanx/sacred heart partner this week and invite them to share their feedback. 

You may be surprised at how freeing this process is!
